This article is going to be a quick one, just showcasing a command I don’t use very frequently but always find annoying to locate when needed.

gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=merged.pdf *.pdf

‘gs’ is a app that can be found using Homebrew (on macOS) or with most Linux distributions. Sometimes on Linux distributions, you may need to search for ‘ghostscript’. While it might seem like overkill for the task at hand, it’s actually a powerful tool capable of various document manipulations. You might find it useful in the future, or it might already be installed on your system due to its versatility.

As I said, this is a quick one. Have a lovely day!
